Lily (friends' doxie)

[bsquared]

My friends and co-workers' doxie, Lily, was attacked last night in her yard by a German shepherd. He grabbed her by the stomach and shook her. They rushed Lily to the e-vet but there was nothing that can be done. Lily was only two and the light of their lives. I'm so sad for them.

Yes...where Deb and Katie live, there is a lot of land and no one has fenced in yards. This dog has been a menace for some time. Lily was playing in the sprinkler when the shepherd ran onto their property, grabbed her by the stomach and shook her. The shepherd is in quarantine for 14 days but Animal Control is going to give it back to the owners. My heart is breaking for Deb and Katie...My girls played with Lily a couple of times...she was a tiny little wire hair with a huge personality. I can't stand it...so much loss lately.

That is absolutely horrible. My heart aches for them. I can't believe that GSD gets to go back home. Is there any repercussion for that???
RIP, Lily.

OMG, I am so sorry - that is heartbreaking :(. Our sympathies to your friends.

for this little one.

Oh, Robyne, that's horrible. I'm so sorry.

There are a lot of people here that think that the golf course is a place to let their dogs run loose in the evening. Cash got jumped by a GSD on night and now I hear there's another dog that "gets loose" and has attacked a couple of dogs. I noticed my neighbors that have a couple b/t smooths have started taking a golf club with them when they walk their dogs so I presume that they've had problems also. I hate people that let their dogs roam.

This is horrible! I also cannot believe they'll get the GSD back to their owners, who are the irresponsible parties to begin with. They should be in jail by knowingly let an aggressive dog run lose!!

R.I.P. Lily. This is

There's a similar case going on here, although fortunately no dogs have died...yet. There's a woman with a pittie cross named Brindi, who's been under a muzzle order for two years (dog, not woman ) because the dog is allowed to roam free and has attacked a number of other dogs. She was also supposed to have her enclosed in a fenced yard ONLY!!! She didn't comply, Brindi got out and bit again, owner complained to A/C, and the A/C officers showed up at the woman's house with a seize and euthanize order. Woman took case to court, court ruled in her favour only because the A/C officers didn't follow correct procedure re: warnings, and Brindi has been in the pound for a year basically on death row with a stay of execution. All because the idiot owner refused to comply (although SHE says Brindi just "got away" from her). If a child had been bitten, the dog would be dead, no questions asked. But because it was other dogs, this happened. It all makes me :mad3: because yet again, the dogs (including Brindi) are suffering because of an idiot owner!!! This is why I do NOT walk my dogs anywhere that other dogs can be off leash...even at the beach, if there're any other off-leash dogs around (and there usually isn't, because hardly anyone goes there), we just stay in the car.

Oh no Robyne - that is awful. Godspeed sweet Lily. Please let her family know we are thinking of her.
